SINGLE REVIEW: Astrid S – Emotion
After the release of her slick and groovy EP ‘Party’s Over’, I really did expect Astrid S’ comeback to be a little more impactful and bold. But ‘Emotion’ is a groovy little synth lead track which packs a lot of heart. It’s a whole hearted grower which will take a few listens for you to…

LIVE REVIEW: WAFIA – Woolly Mammoth
Hometown shows are always a little special and looking at WAFIA’s beaming smile you could tell that it was also very special for her too.
